I've seen it posited on other forums that the the James inherited his 
fortune as a descendant of Godric Gryffindor.  This theory would 
explain the money at Gringott's and why the Potters lived at Godric's 
Hollow. It would also explain why Harry was able to utilize Godric's 
sword in GoF.  Or, maybe all that stuff is just a MacGuffin that JK 
is using to throw us all off. I'm kind of fond of the idea that Harry 
is descended from Gryffindor.
